Bucknell's weekly student newspaper was first published under the name "The Orange & Blue" in March 1897. In November 1915, the name was changed to "The Bucknellian," which it retains today.
Throughout its nearly 130-year history, The Bucknellian has covered Bucknell’s academic, social, and sporting activities. Print copies are available in Special Collections/University Archives to view by appointment.
Each issue of The Bucknellian online is text-searchable, thus alumni and researchers can locate students, faculty, and events via a keyword search. For a brief tutorial (text and/or video) on how to search, please visit Navigating the Bucknellian.
Special Collections/University Archives makes student-produced publications available for historical research. As historical documents that are representative of their respective eras, some issues may contain imagery and text that reflect racial prejudices and injustices that are not in any way condoned by the University or Library & IT. We present them in their entirety to aid in the understanding of history and culture both in the nation and at the University.
